Abstract

kerala is a land enriched with heavy mineral deposits. The western side of kerala has been in the healing touch of Arabian Sea and the southern part of the sea shore has the rare and rich deposit of minerals, stretched along with sea cost beaten tidal channels, that is between Kayamkulam and Neendakara, a tract generally known as chavara cost is situated. The main content of these sands are Ilmenite, Rutile, Leucoxene, Sillimanite, Zircon and Monazite. Out of these the first three are titanium bearing minerals. To make use of these materials, the kerala minerals and metals limited (kmml) has been set up. These minerals can provide large number of metals and metal compounds. The kmml is one of the three factories in the state which uses these minerals as raw-minerals. The other two factories are: - Travancore titanium Products limited and the indian Rare Earth limited.

The kmml is located on the side of N.H - 47, very near to the sea at Sangaramangalam near Chavara. Now kmml is engaged in mining and separating the mineral sands into various constituents like Ilmenite, Rutile, Leucoxene, Sillimanite, Zircon and monazite. The first three minerals are used for the manufacturing of titanium Dioxide Pigment and titanium sponge metal. Zircon is used for making Zirconium Oxide, Zirconium Hydroxide, and Zirconium Ox chloride. Zirconium metal has important application in nuclear technology. Sillimanite is used for making Silicon Aluminum Alloy and monazite is the new material for the Rare Earth Industry.
